Safari 2018 August 7th, 8th

Reflections Holiday Park, Clarkes Beach, Byron Bay

August 7th

Mt Warning can be seen on the sky line

It was only a short trip this morning from Murwillumbah to Byron Bay which is a very busy township with lots of everything happening. After settling our van into a very nice spot with close access to amenities and the beach we enjoyed a short walk along the beach where there was also plenty happening...scuba divers loading into a large 'rubber ducky', a group of canoes and paddlers out on the waves, people swimming and surfing and best of all we saw several humpback whales breaching high out of the sea.From the beach we could see Mt Warning in the distance..maybe ready to warn ships of the many rocks near the shore!

August 8th

Today has been a lay day for me, apart from doing the last load of washing for our trip. John has walked a lot on the beach..9 kms. I had a shorter walk and enjoyed watching a group of canoes entering the waves...the sixth and last one to enter the waves was very promptly unloaded with the swell.Splash!
